# How to make a Burning Bridges AI video Canonical page: https://burningbridgesdrakeai.org/how-to-make-burning-bridges-ai-video Updated: 2026-10-17 > Make your own Burning Bridges Drake AI video in five steps: choose a photo, pick 720p or 1080p, generate, review and post. No prompt or filming needed. You can make a Burning Bridges AI video from a single photo in about 10 minutes. Upload a clear picture, choose a quality, and the built-in party scene and prompt do the rest. ## What you need Before you start, have these ready: - One photo of one person, pet or character: JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 10 MB. - Permission to use that photo. Photos of anyone under 18 are not allowed. - A free account, so your videos are saved to My videos. - Credits from a video pack: a 720p video uses 2 credits and a 1080p video uses 3. ## Make your video in five steps 1. **Choose a clear photo.** Pick a sharp, evenly lit photo with one clearly visible face. Avoid sunglasses, hands over the face, heavy filters and group shots. Include the shoulders and clothing if you want the outfit to carry over. 2. **Upload it and pick a quality.** Open the creator, upload your photo and choose 720p (2 credits) or 1080p (3 credits). Every video is a 15-second 16:9 clip; the party scene and prompt are already built in. 3. **Confirm and generate.** Sign in, confirm you have permission to use the photo and start generation. It can take around 10 minutes. You can leave the page; the video keeps processing and is saved in My videos. 4. **Review the result.** Play the whole clip, not just the first frame. Check that the face stays recognizable, the hands and cup look right and the head stays in frame. If a generation fails, its credits are returned automatically. 5. **Download and post.** Download the MP4 from the player or My videos. It keeps the reference audio track; if your platform mutes it, add a sound from the platform library when you post. ## Photo tips for a better result The photo is the only thing you control, so it matters most. The model needs enough facial detail to keep your subject recognizable while it applies the movement. - One subject only; crop group photos to the person you want. - Face large and in focus; check the eyes at thumbnail size. - Even lighting without strong shadows across the face. - Pets and characters work best facing the camera. - Higher output resolution cannot fix a blurry source photo. ## How much it costs Video packs are one-time purchases with no subscription: 1 video for $5.99 (2 credits), 3 videos for $14.99 (6 credits), 10 videos for $39.99 (20 credits). Credits are shared between qualities and last 12 months. A 10-video pack covers ten 720p videos or six 1080p videos. The 1-video pack covers one 720p video, because a 1080p video needs 3 credits. ## Troubleshooting - The face does not look like the person: use a sharper, front-facing photo with even light. - Someone else in the photo was used: upload a photo with only one person, or crop it first. - Hands or clothing look wrong: include more of the body in the photo; a tight face crop leaves the model guessing. - The video is landscape but you post vertically: post it as 16:9, or crop it in your editor knowing the party background will be cut. - The audio is muted after upload: replace it with a sound from the platform’s library. ## Frequently asked questions ### How long does it take to make a Burning Bridges AI video? Uploading takes a minute; generation can take around 10 minutes. You can close the page and find the video in My videos. ### Do I need to write a prompt? No. The prompt and the reference party scene are built in. You only choose the photo and the quality. ### Should I choose 720p or 1080p? 720p uses 2 credits and is fine for phones. 1080p uses 3 credits and a higher-quality model tier, which is worth it for larger screens or reposting in high quality. ### Can I make a vertical 9:16 version? Videos are generated in 16:9 so the party scene stays in frame. You can crop to 9:16 in an editor, but part of the background will be lost.
